I set up the same report every week using create PDF from multiple files.
Same bookmarks and destinations - Is it possible to have a keyboard shortcut to them?

If you use the Replace pages feature in Acrobat all your bookmarks will be maintained and you won't need to recreate them. Ted Padova has an article on this at:

There is also a neat sample of a batch sequence that you can run at the following URL:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/batch_sequences.pdf

One of the bookmark example scripts will take a collection of selected files not open in Acrobat, and a document that is open in Acrobat, and create a series of bookmarks in the open document which link to the selected files.
